Adrienne Barile is a Washington, DC–based travel writer, photographer, content creator, and licensed drone operator. She is the founder of The Haphazard Traveler, where she creates destination-focused travel content through in-depth articles, photography, short-form video, drone imagery, and social storytelling.

Her work reaches 250,000+ readers and viewers each month across her blog, social platforms, Yahoo Creator features, and freelance publishing channels. She focuses on cultural travel, boutique and luxury-leaning stays, culinary travel, city breaks, and under-the-radar destinations that give travelers a specific reason to go.

Adrienne is a Yahoo Creator, Fodor’s video contributor, member of SATW and NATJA, and licensed drone pilot in the US, EU, and UK. She has also worked with destinations, hotels, tourism boards, and travel brands on sponsored campaigns, editorial-style storytelling, photography, video, social content, and licensed visual assets.

Before launching The Haphazard Traveler, Adrienne traveled internationally for work in recruitment, which led to her first trip abroad with a passport and eventually inspired her to start blogging.
